Summary
Heap-based Buffer Overflow vulnerability in RTI Connext Professional (Core Libraries) allows Overflow Variables and Tags. This issue affects Connext Professional: from 7.4.0 before 7.7.0, from 7.0.0 before 7.3.1.3, from 6.1.0 before 6.1.*, from 6.0.0 before 6.0.*, from 5.3.0 before 5.3.*, from 5.2.0 before 5.2.*, from 5.0.0 before 5.1.*.
Risk Assessment
The vulnerability can lead to heap memory corruption, application crash, or arbitrary code execution, which could be exploited to take control of the system. In industrial environments, this may cause serious disruptions to system operation.
Recommendation
Upgrade RTI Connext Professional to version 7.7.0 or later (for 7.4.x series), 7.3.1.3 or later (for 7.0.x series), and appropriate fixes for 6.1.x, 6.0.x, 5.3.x, 5.2.x, and 5.0.x series. Verify the integrity of input data processed by the libraries.
